Maintenance Operations
Maintenance is a key aspect of Akiem's operations, with the company aiming to ensure the reliability and availability of its rolling stock. It has established maintenance centers and a network of partners across Europe. In 2024, the company rolled out a transformation program for its Maintenance & Services division to enhance its maintenance offerings. This initiative included the opening of a new facility in Ostricourt, northern France, designed to set a benchmark in capacity and training for rail maintenance.
InnoTrans Display
At InnoTrans 2024, Akiem will present its capabilities and services, including the new TRAXX MS3 Universal locomotive, developed in collaboration with Alstom. The company has placed an order for 75 of these locomotives, with an option for an additional 25 units. This addition is expected to expand European rail freight capacity.
Akiem will be available at stand 445 in Hall A during the event, where attendees can learn more about the company’s fleet and services.
